Can I short sale my house in Roseville bankruptcy?

A Roseville bankruptcy lawyer discusses short sale...

Can I short sale my house in bankruptcy?
Yes. You can short sale your house in bankruptcy so long as get an offer and are able to work out the short sale with your bank. The benefit of a short sale of a house in bankruptcy is: 1) you avoid foreclosure, and 2) you can treat any deficient amount (the difference between your loan amount and the price that the house was sold for) as an unsecured debt in your bankruptcy.

In order to short sale your house in bankruptcy, you will first need to put the house up for sale. Then you will have to wait for an offer to purchase to be made for your property. This can happen quickly or it can take a long time, depending on the housing market in your area. Once you have received an offer to purchase the property, you must submit the offer to the bank. The bank will then review the offer and determine whether or not they will accept it.

If the bank accepts the short sale offer, and if you are filing for bankruptcy, then any deficient amount will be included as an unsecured debt in your bankruptcy.
